Rumors say that the feud between Tate McRae and The Kid Laroi continues to intensify as the latter seemingly alludes to it in cryptic tweets.
The Kid Laroi took to X earlier this week to address a fan's claim that his team was responsible for the slew of online attacks against McRae. The fan claimed that these stemmed from his new single, Hot Girl Problems, in which he seemingly alludes to her cheating on him.
Just a few weeks ago, X was swirling with rumors that McRae was seemingly too close to her bodyguard as their photos went viral online. In his tweet on X, The Kid Laroi said:
"so yall know I have NOTHING to do with this and I DO NOT co sign this behavior whatsoever. working to get these removed."
He also shared a screenshot of his message to his team, where he told them:
"Guys is this coming internally? If so can we please have these taken down Tate and I are on good terms and this just looks messy / whack."
His team echoed the sentiments too, with one noting, "we'll make moves on this," and the other affirming the hate, "definitely didn't come from us that's for fu*cked up."
The Canadian pop star and the Australian musician have been romantically linked since early last year, though it was only in April that The Kid Laroi confirmed that they were dating. At the time, as reported by People Magazine, he was in Dublin for a performance, where he told fans that “his girlfriend” was somewhere in the audience. McRae was watching from the side of the stage.

February 2025
Tate McRae dropped her third studio album, So Close to What, at the time, and one of the songs was a collaboration between her and Laroi, titled “I Know Love.” As reported by Teen Vogue, McRae told Billboard at the time of the collaboration:
“It was a really funny process, because me and LAROI have never really, like, taken each other seriously. You know when you’re in a relationship and you sing around each other, but you don’t really, like, sing? So it was a little stressful being in the studio singing and writing in front of him, but it was a cool experience to watch him in his process.”
Ahead of the album's release, she spoke to Apple Music's Zane Lowe about how their relationship is “really fresh.”
“We've never sung in front of each other until August. I pulled him out for one of my shows. And it was so funny, we're sitting in soundcheck and neither of us wanted to start singing," she said, at the time, noting that she "wouldn't look at him" while singing.
She continued,
“It's like a mental thing where I just feel like he's never heard me sing, and I like to pretend that he doesn't know I'm a singer, but he does obviously know I'm a singer,” she gushed. “Doing the soundcheck is so nervous, and same with writing in the studio. We were just like, ‘Are you going to listen?’ And he's like, ‘Yeah.’ But it was funny. It was wholesome. It was cute, but it was definitely nerve-wracking for both of us, who are usually so in our element and so controlling in the rooms. We both were like, 'Okay, who's going to lead the room?'… We just try to not talk about work as much as possible, but it is hard when the conversation always leads back there.”
June 2025
The two made several appearances in the last few months, and during an interview with Elle Magazine that came out in June, The Kid Laroi got candid about his bond with his girlfriend:
“She’s the hardest working artist I’ve ever met in my entire life. And I don’t say that because she’s my girlfriend," he said of her. “Seeing how hard she works inspires and encourages me to follow along and do the same. There’s something really, really motivating about that — and really attractive as well.”
When asked if there was anything she did that would make him “melt,” he gushed,
“That’s easy. Every time she smiles, it makes me weak.”
July 2025
Rumors that the two had broken up began flying as the Australian crooner was reportedly spotted holding hands with another woman in LA. At the same time, Tate McRae was spotted on vacation during her birthday without The Kid Laroi. She spent the week with her friends and bodyguard.
